Description:
The long wait is over...the Smurfs on DVD for the first time ever! They're finally here! Handy, Hefty, Grouchy, Brainy, Lazy, Smurfette, Papa Smurf and more favorites bring you the greatest show on Smurf - on DVD for the first time ever. It's Season One, Vol. 1 of Smurfs' Adventures, the Emmy-winning animated series [Outstanding Children's Entertainment Series 1982-83] that delighted Saturday morning cartoon fans for nearly a decade. Of course, where Smurfs are, you'll also find evil wizard Gargamel and his cat Azrael - plus monsters, dragons and trolls - keeping our three-apple-high heroes on their tiny blue toes throughout 19 cartoon escapades. Ready for adventure, laughs and enchantment? Abso-Smurfly!

Amazon.com:
Beloved in Europe for almost 20 years before they became a toy and marketing hit on American shores, Belgian cartoonist Peyo's industrious and charming Smurfs were a natural choice for Saturday morning TV; fans who grew up with their popular and Emmy-nominated network run (1981-1990) can now enjoy (and share) the first 19 episodes of the Hanna-Barbera produced series, which are remastered and compiled in this tidy two-disc set. Though simplistic by today's animation standards, the quarter-century-plus since their U.S. TV debut has not diminished the key ingredient to the Smurfs' enduring appeal: their unflappably upbeat demeanor, which helps Papa Smurf, Smurfette, and the rest of the clan overcome the schemes of their chief rival, the evil wizard Gargamel, but also a dangerous bird ('The Smurfs and the Howlibird'), a duplicitous genie ('The Magical Meanie'), and the Tribble-like 'Fuzzles' ('Fuzzle Trouble'), and the giant Bigmouth ('Soup a la Smurf'). More benign issues are also handled with the Smurfs' typical can-do attitude, like Harmony's embarrassment over his lack of tunesmanship in 'Smurphony in 'C'' or the hubbub caused by the arrival of Smurfette (addressed in 'The Smurfette' and 'Romeo and Smurfette'). And if the dialogue remains a touch on the corny side (especially the incessant use of 'smurf' to replace any number of nouns, verbs and adverbs), it's delivered with good cheer by some of the best names in vocal talent, including Paul Winchell, Don Messick, Lucille Bliss, June Foray, Frank Welker, and Lenny Weinrib. It's unfortunate that the set's supplemental features don't delve further into the Smurfs' long history (or even into the TV series) with any detail; the Emmy-nominated 1982 primetime special The Smurfs' Springtime Special is the chief extra, while Smurfs: The Music Video offers tantalizing snippets of production sketches and promotional footage in a haphazard montage. Previews for DVD releases of Scooby-Doo, Tom and Jerry, and Looney Tunes round out the set. --Paul Gaita

- Smurfs Season 1 vol 1 DVD
This box set is great, have been waiting for a long time for the Smurfs to finally come to DVD. Why all one season couldn't have been in it's own box set instead of splitting it up into two sets is beyond me but great set nonetheless. Included on this dvd are episodes:
The Surf's Apprentice, The Smurfette, Vanity Fare, King Smurf, The Astrosmurf, Jokey's Medicine, St. Smurf and the Dragon, Sorcerer Smurf, The Smurfs and the Howlibird, The Magical Meanie, Bewitched, Bothered and Besmurfed, Smurf-Colored Glasses, Dreamy's Nightmare, Fuzzle Trouble, Soup a la Smurf, All That Glitters Isn't Smurf, Romeo and Smurfette, The Hundredth Smurf, Smurphony in 'C', and bonus episode: The Smurfs' Springtime Special. Enjoy the DVD's.

- as good as the smurfs get in english
our sons loves the smurfs and these episodes are as good as the smurfs get. they are quite accurate to the comics I used to read when I was little. too bad the DVD doesn't include original languages like German or French as a lot of the word plays are lost in the english version.

- learn ENGLISH before you start complaining!!
The people on here complaining because it doesn't have Spanish - SHUT UP!

Learn English, you are in America! You CERTAINLY need to be teaching your kids English...stop being ridiculous with these ignorant complaints. Only complain about this product if it has an ACTUAL defect.

If you don't like it being in English, don't buy it. I personally found this product awesome, and will be great for my child.
